Thanks!  "Basic Mode" rings a bell.

Tom,

Yes, I believe there was a period of time and certain CPU models when the 
hardware supported what (IIRC) was called either basic mode or LPAR mode.  
Basic mode ran the OS on bare hardware and obviously only 1 OS image on the box.

Once IBM started using LPARs was there ever another option?  I don't remember or was 
never involved.  Today I call running under an LPAR "bare metal", as opposed to 
z/VM or KVM or whatever.

   I understand that IBM wisely nowadays
supports z/OS only in an LPAR, not in both LPAR and bare metal.
